[QUOTE="Idaho Trecker, post: 1233549, member: 67706"] I just did load workup for my dad's 240 that was built on a Rem 700 with a pac nor 1:9 twist 26". He had pac nor do the chambering also and it had a super short throat which I had lengthened out by my LGS. I did a pressure test with RL 26 and 105 Berger vld hunting bullet. These numbers were from a magnetospeed. 56 grains (max I could shoot) gave me 3535 fps but was way hot. I backed down to 54.3 grains and I had an ES of 7 fps and average speed of 3404fps. I ran the same brass for 4 times of the same load and primer pockets were still great. I gave him all of my load testing data so this is just from my memory and what I had stored in my Applied Ballistics. This load is a real laser and is good on brass and pressure and shot .3's Just to emphasize again this is for my specific gun and to work up slowly if you give it a try. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
